In order to achieve the above purpose, in the conventional cell 3D printing, a scaffold material represented by hydrogel is usually mixed with a cell sap to prepare a bio-ink, and the bio-ink is printed, and the hydrogel is solidified to form a cell-attached biological scaffold. However, as a carrier for further propagation of cells, the biological scaffold has many challenges, such as interference of cell-cell communication, non-uniform cell attachment, influence of scaffold degradation, and poor precision of scaffold materials. The existing scaffold-free cell printing technology avoids doping a scaffold material into cell sap to prepare biological ink for printing, and has obvious advantages in the aspects of cell-cell communication and the like. However, the existing stentless cell printing technology still needs to use agar rods and the like as physical supports in the cell printing process.
